Description

This research paper explores the peculiarities of the concept of aestheticization of politics in the ideology of fascism. The influence of the aesthetic on moral and political norms is determined, and the concept of aestheticization of politics proposed by V. Benjamin is distinguished. Along with this, the theoretical boundaries of this concept were expanded and its core element – the category of fascist style as a universal attribute of all socio-political life – was determined, its characteristic features were nuanced: courage, fearlessness, rebellion, heroism, adventurism, etc. The peculiarity of realizing the aesthetic perception of the state in the ideology of fascism was also theoretically dissected.
